Pahalgam, Kashmir, April 7th, 2010

Pahalgam is in a valley by the Lidder River. Framed by pine forests and snow covered peaks, it houses a place called "mini Switzerland" because of the snow that accumulates in the winter. Once a beautiful resort, now fairly desolate except during the annual Amarnath pilgrimage. Chandwadi, the base to the Amarnath pilgrimage site is 16km from Pahalgam.
